How to Hide Sex Toys: My Top 6 Spots

Even though sex toys are way more normalized these days (thank you, progress!), most of us still prefer to keep our stash out of plain sight. Nothing wrong with a little privacy, right? Sure, leaving your vibe out on the nightstand might not be a big deal when you're flying solo at home—I’ve definitely done it—but the moment a surprise guest drops by? Cue the frantic scrambling and awkward explanations. Save yourself the sweat and stash your toys somewhere safe before you're lobbing that bright pink dildo across the room like it’s a hot potato.

Personally, I’ve accumulated a decent collection of intimate goodies over time, and I’ve gotten a little creative with where I keep them. Not everyone has the setup for it, but we actually built our bed (yes, really) and let’s just say… we included some fun secret compartments. 😉

Whether you're living with roommates, back at your parents’ place, or raising a family, having a go-to hiding spot for your toys is key. So let’s talk about some clever, discreet, and no-panic-required storage options.

Let’s talk about some sneaky-yet-smart spots to stash your vibrators and sex toys—places that keep things both convenient and on the down low.

Under Your Bed

Stashing your sex toys under the bed? Classic move. It’s the go-to for a reason: easy access, decent privacy, and you don’t have to trek across the room mid-vibe. But tossing them straight between the mattress and bed frame? That’s a fast track to linty, dusty regret. Instead, grab yourself a cute storage box—something decorative that won’t look suspicious if someone happens to peek under there.

It’s perfect for keeping everything together: toys, chargers, instruction manuals (no judgment if you actually read those). Plus, no need to heave up your entire mattress just to grab your favorite vibe. Feeling a little crafty? Drill a little hole in the side of the box so you can discreetly run a charging cable through. Your toys stay tucked away and charged—ready when you are.

Nightstand Drawer

Another solid option? The nightstand drawer. Not ideal if you’re actively trying to keep your stash on the down-low (hi, nosy roommates), but if privacy isn’t a huge concern, this one’s a winner. Personally, it’s my go-to for toys I’m currently vibing with—easy to grab, easy to put away, and no digging around in weird spots required.

It’s also a great home for your lube. Please, I beg you, do not keep that under your mattress. The risk of it leaking and turning the underside of your bed into a goopy mess is just... not worth it. (Ask me how I know. Actually, don’t.)

The drawer setup keeps everything clean, close, and conveniently together—no awkward treasure hunts mid-session. And bonus: it all looks totally innocent to the casual eye. Win-win.

Tissue Box

A tissue box might just be your new favorite hiding spot for a smaller vibrator. It’s one of those so-obvious-it’s-actually-genius kinds of things. Unless someone in your house is battling allergies and reaches for a tissue, your secret stash is likely to stay under the radar. Bonus: it can hang out on your nightstand without raising any eyebrows, and it's handy for, well, cleanup time too.

That said, this sneaky little storage trick works best if you’re not sharing a space—or at least if you’re confident no one else is going to rifle through your tissues. I’ve personally used this method for a quick hide, but fair warning: there’s really only room for one small toy. So if you’re building a collection (no judgment here!), you might need to get a little more creative.

Discreet Sex Toy Storage Container

If you’re looking for the Fort Knox of sex toy storage, a dedicated lock box is your best bet. These are perfect if you’ve got a bit of a collection—or, let’s be honest, a full-blown arsenal (is that the right word? I dunno, but is seems to fit. Haha). Lock boxes are designed specifically for discreet, secure storage, so you can tuck them away in a cupboard, on a high shelf, or under the bed without stressing that someone might accidentally (or ahem, curiously) peek inside.

Personally, my concern isn’t what someone might find—it’s how much. Like, yes, this is a lot of toys. No, I don’t technically need all of them. But also… maybe I do? (Don’t judge me.) Either way, if you’re looking for true concealment—and a little peace of mind—a lock box is the way to go.

Shoe Box

Let’s talk about the shoe box—it’s actually a totally underrated option when it comes to keeping your toys tucked away. Whether you’ve got a few favorites or just one go-to, a shoe box makes for a surprisingly discreet hiding spot. It’s the classic “hide in plain sight” move. No one’s going to think twice about a random box under your bed or sitting quietly in your closet. Want to level up your stealth game? Throw in a few pieces of clothing on top, and just like that, your toy is out of sight and safe from prying eyes. There’s usually even enough space for your lube too, which is always a plus.

Sure, reaching into the closet might not feel ideal when you’re in the mood and want quick access—but that small inconvenience can save you from a whole lot of awkward convos down the line. A little effort now for maximum chill later? Worth it.

Underwear Drawer

Let’s be real—no one’s rifling through your underwear drawer (and if they are, you’ve got bigger issues). That’s exactly why it makes such a classic, tried-and-true hiding spot. In fact, according to some surveys, it’s actually one of the most popular places people tuck away their toys. Sure, it might not offer as much room as, say, a dedicated storage box, but it scores high on stealth.

And while it’s not the most convenient spot if your bed is your go-to playground (though, who says you have to keep it in the bedroom?), you can rest easy knowing your secret stash is tucked away safely—and stylishly—next to your lace and cotton blend.

It all comes down to how many toys you've got, but don't worry—you can always add more storage as your collection grows! Amazon has a ton of cute, decorated storage boxes that are perfect for keeping your toys tucked away, whether they’re stashed under the bed, in a closet, or displayed on a shelf.

While you're organizing, it might be a good idea to keep your sexual wellness accessories in the same box as your toys. That way, everything you need is in one spot, ready to go when you are! Here’s a quick list of items you might want to include:

1. Lube
2. Condoms
3. Chargers
4. Toy Cleaner
5. Warming Gel

Having it all in one place makes for easy access and a smoother experience. Plus, it’ll keep everything neat and tidy, so you can focus on enjoying your toys rather than hunting for your favorite lube.

Now that you’re in the know about the best spots to stash your toys, lubes, and other accessories, it’s time to get creative with your hiding places. These are personal items, and it’s totally natural to want to keep them out of sight. But remember, you're not limited to just one hiding spot!

From sleek, customizable options—big or small—to lockable boxes that keep even the most curious people at bay, the possibilities are endless. The key here is finding what works best for you and your space.

Just don’t overthink it! These toys are your go-to when the mood strikes, so you want them within reach. You don’t want to be scrambling through a box at the back of the house just to get your favorite vibe when you’re ready to go. Keep it simple and keep it close!
